I'm looking for a good instance to join for work use - specifically something with communities focused on cybersecurity, systems engineering, programming, devops, etc. No NSFW stuff, world news, entertainment.

I'd say go ahead and make "not for questions about lemmy" a hard and fast rule, and link to some subs that might be better for that (https://lemmy.ml/c/findacommunity, https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support). These aren't open-ended questions. I'd rather this be for questions that will prompt interesting responses based on people's opinions and experiences.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !findacommunity@lemmy.ml, !lemmy_support@lemmy.ml
